As if the injuries couldn’t get any worse for the New York Yankees, starting third baseman Gio Urshela went down with seemed like a significant injury on Tuesday night.
After being plunked on the left hand by a Diego Castillo fastball, Urshela was forced out of the game in the seventh inning on Tuesday night against the Tampa Bay rays. DJ LeMahieu moved over to third base and Luke Voit took over at first base while Gio was tended to in the clubhouse.
Immediately after he was hit, the injured hand began to swell up and turned black and blue indicating a potential fracture.
